Double post


Our May challenge and our FINAL one over at 
is Cute Creatures!

As always there is a fabulous prize
so be sure and get your entry/entries in!



I went with this poor giraffe and made a bookmark.
The background was made on my gelli plate
using acrylic paint and sponges
but I did mask off my giraffe first.
I then added some embossing paste (TH)
and a leaf stencil (SU).
At the bottom I added some green fun flock
to ground my giraffe.
I removed the mask and coloured him
up with markers.
I stamped the sentiment and chopped it up
to fit down the centre of the bookmark.
I finished it off with some black wool.
The Giraffe is from an old SU set
called Back on your Feet.

I would like to enter this into
(acrylic paints, gelli board, embossing paste, fun flock, wool)



****************************************



For our May challenge over at
the theme is 
All Creatures great and Small.

We have a lovely prize up for grabs here too
so come and join us!


For my card I used a cream base which I didn't like
so I inked it with green ink.
I then stencilled the background using a stencil
from IndigoBlu in green ink and
ran it through my sewing machine.
Next I stamped the gorgeous fox (IndigoBlu)
and coloured him up with markers.
I ripped around the edges of him
and before sticking in place,
I added some string so it would
show behind him.
I stamped and inked the sentiment,
chopped it up and placed on my card
to finish.

I would like to enter this into
